Lyrics
[Verse 1] Heat on the stones Bare feet in the dust Olive leaves tremble The air tastes of rust You watch the sky lean Like a door on its hinge Cracked lemon and copper At the edge of the ridge [Pre-Chorus] The horizon holds its breath The market goes still One long dark ribbon Rolling over the hill [Chorus] Summer storm, come down Wash this fire away Summer storm, come down Break the day, break the day Ooh, let it shake us Ooh, let it stay [Verse 2] Laundry on balconies Twisting like flags Children run laughing With mango-sweet bags Rain on the awning Like coins in a tray Your hand finds my shoulder And the world turns gray [Pre-Chorus] The horizon holds its breath The market goes still One long dark ribbon Rolling over the hill [Chorus] Summer storm, come down Wash this fire away Summer storm, come down Break the day, break the day Ooh, let it shake us Ooh, let it stay [Bridge] First drop on the forehead Then the whole sky snaps Pomegranate shadows In the sudden collapse If the road disappears Then I’ll follow your name Through the salt of the thunder Through the gold in the rain [Chorus] Summer storm, come down Wash this fire away Summer storm, come down Break the day, break the day Ooh, let it shake us Ooh, let it stay
